Voice call termination rates in the EU (Eurorates)
Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2021/654 of 18 December 2020 supplementing Directive (EU) 2018/1972 of the European Parliament and of the Council by setting a single maximum Union-wide mobile voice termination rate and a single maximum Union-wide fixed voice termination rate (Text with EEA relevance)
- Legal basis:
- 32018L1972 - A75P1
- Initiative summary:
- The European Electronic Communications Code aims to protect EU consumers and businesses from excessive prices for telephony services. The Code will require the Commission to adopt a delegated act setting maximum fixed and mobile voice call termination rates in the EU by 31/12/2020. Termination rates are the rates telecommunications operators charge each other to deliver voice calls between their networks. Such wholesale cost of delivering voice calls can be passed on to consumers' bills.
